Bucky Covington Wants His Life Back
Actually, he said he was very glad not to be working his old job at his dad's mechanic shop, so that's not entirely true. But as he prepares for the Oct. 13 release of his next album, Bucky Covington recently stopped by the CMT offices to play a few new songs, and one of them was the album's first single, "I Want My Life Back." It's a story about wisdom found in a homeless man's refusal of a handout, since money can't buy what he really wants. The former American Idol contestant also related that Mark Miller, vocalist of the group Sawyer Brown, returns as producer of the upcoming album and that it will feature an unusual choice of a cover song, Nickelback's "Gotta Be Somebody." Look for the video for "I Want My Life Back" on CMT.com soon. For now, though, you can hear an extended preview of the song on Covington's MySpace page.

If he’s going for the Pop sound he’s achieved it. Don’t care for this type of “country” music at all..
